Summary, etc. | For more than forty years Per Jacobsson was a powerful force in the field of economics, international finance, and monetary policy. He was born and educated in Sweden and became known in wider spheres during his service with the League of Nations and as Economic Adviser to the Bank for International Settlements. In 1956 he became Director of the Inter national Monetary Fund and super intended the introduction of external convertibility in 1958.<br/><br/>This biography is written by his daughter, herself an economist, and is based upon his voluminous papers and the diary he kept for the years 1911-63. Because of the breadth of Jacobsson's interests and the central part he played, the biography, while very much a biography, is inevitably also a broad survey of developments in international finance and monetary policy over a period of more than forty years. The book, besides being a very readable account of an able, like able, and many-sided man, is full of material that will interest economists and bankers and all those interested in international affairs over a period still very relevant to our own time. |
